My quest for food took me searching out to the night markets near the hotel. Fortunately there were two night markets.

The first one a little further was just a clothing market so a waste but the second closer to the hotel was a buzzing night market full of food stalls. This was a recognized tourist market, had different tour groups passing thru, and vendors handing out free samples

I was looking for the green onion pancakes which I hadnt seen since leaving Taichung. Instead I found a vendor selling roasted giant mushrooms..

They were chopped into small chunks, coated with an outer layer of crust and spices, and lightly roasted. I tried one of the sample sticks and they were so yummy. I then bought a small carton for $50 TWD ($1.75) which tasted just like spicy chunks of potatoe

Some of the items in the market I didnt understand, I wasnt going to be too adventurous sampling food. I was also looking for tourist boxes of cookies to share with the teachers back at school

Leaving the market there was a gun store selling different types of firearms which seemed a bit strange for a very peaceful island.
